In one of Farty Girl's recent posts, she talked about a place that provides constant peace. My most peaceful place has been the pool whether it's indoors or out. Must admit, though, outdoors moves me more.
Yesterday, I chose the pool over yoga although I could have stretched myself and done both but I'm trying not to run myself ragged.
I headed out to Hazira's where the pool is at, asked her to put sunscreen on my back, stole a couple of bites of watermelon and stayed in the pool for about two hours.
I got in about 15 minutes of swimming before I got chatted up -- first by a woman who left her daughter in the shallow end while she talked to me and next by a man who was there with his wife and kids. Apparently, the wife and kids had other people to talk to.
I darted underwater whenever one of them got distracted as I tried to get in at least 30 minutes of swimming.
I missed yoga, though, because I'm finding that it's been a place of peace as well.
After swimming, I headed to Hazira's and ate more watermelon. I'm really digging the ritual of swimming then watermelon. Apparently, I like water inside and out.
Wednesday: more sunscreen, swimming and watermelon. ☺
What's been moving you lately?

I like water inside and out too! I get so annoyed when my neighbors think my walking/running time is a great time to talk to me. I don't even take my earphones out - I just try to nod and be basically polite.
ReplyDeleteDiane,
ReplyDeleteGood strategy re: the earphones and politeness.
Maybe I should go ahead and get a waterproof MP3 player. ;) I've toyed with the idea before...
